Designed in the middle of the 20th century as a holiday retreat for a very important Milanese family, Villa Colico sits on a gated, sloped land (approx. 7.4 acres) on Lake Como\'s northeast shore. The villa enjoys panoramic views of the magnificent blue lake and the mountains beyond. The view, the light and the strong relationship between the interiors and nature are the main features of this dream villa. Its modern architectural style was inspired by the design ideas of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Upon entering, you are greeted with a breathtaking lake view that can be seen from every room in the villa. The house focuses on entertainment with a large living and dining room that leads onto the outside panoramic terrace - the perfect setting for outdoor dining and sundowners. The hot tub and the pool are at the top of the property so guests can relax in the water looking over the azure waters of Lake Como. Other activities available on site include ping pong, badminton, volleyball, and table football.

This is the ideal villa for those looking for something really special. (Please note, there might be child safety issues with the open pool and steps). Pets are accepted upon request.

The pool is open from May 15 - September 15.

You will have the exclusive use of the property with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms for up to 8 people.
